Jewel with Rainbows

[jimk]

I have a tank with 3 Geophagus Brasiliensis and 3 Rainbow Cichlids. All about 2 inches. Can I put my jewel cichlid(3 inches) in with them.

I would have to say no, the Jewels can get really aggresive. I had my Jewels in with my Oscars, and they held thier ground quite well.....

Would'nt advise it Jewels can be very nasty I had 1 in with a Jack and a terror he had to go.

I'd have to concur, especially prior to mating they can be nasty little SOB's. Beautiful mind you, and very hardy....I've had them bully Oscar's and take after Con's when the mood strikes them.
